A review of the complexity approach to the study human (society)-nature interactions [PDF]
Traditional approach to the study of society-nature interactions based on reductionism and linear causality is no longer fully capable of explaining complex dynamics of integrated socio-economic and natural systems. For this reason demands for complexity

Hybrid Lake Model (HyLake) v1.0: unifying deep learning and physical principles for simulating lake-atmosphere interactions [PDF]
Lake-atmosphere interactions play a critical role in Earth systems dynamics. However, accurately modelling key indicators of these interactions remains challenging due to their oversimplified physics in traditional process-based models or the limited ...

A cyclical wildfire pattern as the outcome of a coupled human natural system
AbstractOver the past decades, wildfire has imposed a considerable cost on natural resources and human lives. In many regions, annual wildfire trends show puzzling oscillatory patterns with increasing amplitudes for burned areas over time. This paper aims to examine the potential causes of such patterns by developing and examining a dynamic simulation ...
